Puma’s getting heavy on the sailing tip, and we’re not just talking about having yachts on the reg. The brand recently sponsored a sailboat in the Volvo Ocean Race that hit spots around the world like Rio de Janeiro. Which gets us to these Aqua Mostro C’s, a strappy low-top that’s as deck-ready as your Sperry’s. The sneakers have released in white, but this navy blue colorway will hold the water-stains better. Cop ‘em here for $75.

Sneaker nation tends to have a love-hate relationship with gold kicks. Some can't get enough of them, and some wish the flashy trend would fade into obscurity like Jeffrey Atkins. But in a market where the trends are so finicky, kicks in Au colorways always seem to pop up regardless of what’s hot at the moment.
If you think the first time someone cool rocked gold kicks was Jay-Z in the “Umbrella” video, you're dead wrong. Back in 1996, Michael Johnson owned the Olympic games in his gold-dipped track spikes. And in 2009, the style still seems to be going strong'last week Puma released a 24k collabo sneaker with UNDFTD.
We’re not sure how long the gold rush will last for, so take a look back at all the gold sneakers that have caught our eye over the years…

After playing the cut for a few years, Puma's comfortable trainer, the Disc Blaze returns with a bang this month. Puma brought back the silhouette, added a lace-unit, and then capped it off with a Mexican motif on the inside. Check for them at select retailers for a buck.

The Gumball 3000 Rally celebrates its 10th anniversary this year with a route that takes 120 teams of billionaires, car enthusiasts, and celebrity drivers across the west coast of the US and then over to Asia on an 8 day stint. From August 9th-11th, the riders travel from San Francisco to Los Angeles to Las Vegas, with parties in each city at night. From there, the cars will board Antonov cargo planes and fly to Pyongyang, North Korea, where they will kick it with the always stylish Kim Jong Ill for the night (true story!). The trip wraps up after the caravan drives to Bejing for the Olympics on August 16.
To commemorate the event (and to brand the drivers) Puma printed T-shirts that will be worn exclusively by Gumball participants'the aptly-titled “driver” shirt is shown above. Check out more detail shots and the “crew” shirts below.

Puma swagger-jacked deceased American Pop Artist Roy Lichtenstein's style for a new silhouette they'll introduce called the Pop Art 917 Lo. Lichtenstein was known for his deeply rooted influence in comic book art, and with the Basket 68s that Puma did a while back being a hit, the brand decided to channel Lichtenstein again for this low-profile sneaker. They'll be available at select Puma stores this summer.
